I almost said Randy Johnson didn't get charged with anything, but I guess it wasn't intentional...Or was it?

I love the catcher in this video by the way. He backs away like he's scared of whatever just happened.

This guy is an idiot who clearly knows zero about golf.

"He just kept saying how he didn't think he could have hit it, which I think is a stupid thing for a PGA Tour golfer to say," said Jethro Senger, a sound engineer at the shoot. "He can put a ball in a hole from hundreds of yards away, and here he is hitting line drives at something that's, I don't know, a couple hundred feet away?"

Are you saying you can't nail them from 100+ yards?

you mean with your two handicap you can't regularly put balls in the hole from 150 out? I do at least twice every time i play. . .

I think I've holed out from over 100 yards about 3 times in my life, so that makes me 3 for 100,000.

by the way, the only thing cooler than Randy Johnson's beaning of the bird I've seen was when I was riding in a friend's car and a bird flew under it. Not sure if it hit the bottom of the car or the pavement, but all we saw were feathers fly up from the back end of the car very similar to the Johnson bird.

To add to the puns, this is what is known as a red herring:
